- Risk
- The product poses a serious risk of injuries because: - the plastics of the guards are defective,- the guards are fragile,- in mitre mode the fixed upper guard allows the test finger to come into contact with the teeth of the cutting disc,- the fastening anchorage of the lower protector in mitre mode is too fragile, it breaks without any effort in attempting to fit it, and cannot therefore be used,- the rear guard of the cutting disc in the mitre position is plastic with manufacturing defects which make it very fragile, it breaks when the disc is fitted, leaving a great number of cutting disc teeth (approximately 5 cm) exposed (para.s 1.4.1/2/3),- the cutting disc can be fitted in a very eccentric position in its housing because it does not have clamp flanges, an effective guide for the disc or if the spindle is too small for the disc supplied. When the disc is off-centre it causes strong vibrations when starting up and stopping. It also causes resonance at maximum power which causes a loud, piercing noise and could cause the flanges to loosen, leaving the cutting disc loose.The product does not comply with Machinery Directive and the relevant European standard EN 12100.
